As the structure was very simple in the first place, a day was enough for the Dwarves to make stirrups.
Thus, on the day when all the samples were finally completed, all the knights gathered at the training hall to watch the demonstration.
The demonstrator was Fabian, the youngest member of the Knights and Nadiaâs escort.
Riding on a horse and running from place to place, he said, raising the helmet cover.
âThis is really comfortable. Itâs very stable even though Iâm covered with heavy armour.â
Everyone could see his full admiration smile under the helmet cover.
This was why Fabian, the youngest in the knights, was selected as the first one to try the stirrup.
Nadia calculated that if Fabian, who had the weakest muscle strength, could withstand the repulsive force on the horse, other knights would be able to withstand it.
And the second reason.
âDonât you feel nervous at all? If something goes wrong, you might get seriously hurt.â
âOh, my bones are strong, so itâs okay. You worry too much, my lord!â
Maybe Fabian didnât feel scared at all because he was still young.
âEven if I get hurt, I will get better soon.â
ââ¦â¦Then do as you please.â
âThank you.â
Fabian grinned and lowered the helmet cover again.
Then, he turned the horseâs head and faced west of the training hall. It was the direction where the temporary obstacles were located.
âWhen should I start?â
âThereâs no such thing as a ready signal in a battle, run when youâre ready.â
âYes!â
Someone threw a javelin at Fabian.
With a javelin flying in his hand, Fabian started charging forward.
Gallop!
At first, Fabian spurred his horse in a slow pace, but he gradually sped up. It didnât take long to reach the horseâs top speed.
Giscard groaned as he watched the scene.
âMy lord, I think he is going to crash if heâs not slowing down. Shouldnât you stop him?â
ââ¦He wonât even hear me even if I shout from here anyway.â
The noise made when the horse ran at full speed was louder than Nadia thought.
Although it had the effect of putting pressure on enemy soldiers, it also made them difficult to exchange signals. Just like now.
Several senior knights unconsciously raised their voices at the dangerous scene, but Fabian did not seem to hear them.
Clank!
With a loud roar, the tip of the javelin bumped against the obstruction.
The obstacle that had been firmly fixed was easily torn like paper by Fabianâs weapon.
Nevertheless, Fabian was still sitting on his horse. There was not even a hint of a fall or imbalance.
Fabianâs javelin, which was passed over to him in the beginning, pierced several layers of iron obstacle.
Clenching his fist, Glenn thought.
âItâs beyond my expectation.â
If speed and weight were added to their produced oreâs destructive power, their enemy soldiers could be torn down like a piece of paper.
Surprised by the unexpected killing power, no one could even utter a word.
All they could hear was the sound of Fabianâs horse hoofs approaching.
At that silent moment, an excited womanâs voice rang in the air in the training field.
âIf it was a real battle, your weapon could even pierce three enemy soldiers!â
ââ¦â¦.â
There was only one woman here. It was Nadia.
Her clasped hands and flushed cheeks were as cute as a girl who was admiring a sweet dessert for the first time.
If only they could ignore the content of what she just said with that expression.
Wasnât it strange to laugh so brightly about piercing someone with a javelin in front of a man whom she had first love with?
It was a little strange, but Glenn, who usually didnât have many opportunities to meet women, who, too, had no choice but to be suspicious could only wonder.
It was the same with other knights. They glanced at Nadia and thought.
âMy lady⦠You must really love our lord.â
âThis had made it clear. She wasnât a spy from the Duke of Balazit. Even if she got married to play the role of a spy, she wasnât the Dukeâs puppet.â
âWow, love can make you do things.â
When Nadia paid off Winterfellâs debt, there was a rumour that it was just a scheme to betray the Marquis after winning his trust.
In fact, there were not a few people who agreed.
Even Giscard, the chief of the Knights, had been preaching passionately not to trust Nadia.

However, since Nadia contributed to the fall of Vallon Fortress, the negative opinion about Nagia began to lose traction.
This was because it was not beneficial for Balazit to bring the entire Raina region down to the point of planting a spy.
And today, they were finally convinced.
